Sally, Hands On Babies

Taster Baby Massage & baby yoga classes after class stay, relax & meet new Mums. Leeds, Pontefract & Wakefield area

I was first introduced to baby massage over 9 years ago with my first child Jack.
I am very passionate in what I do as a mum of four it has provided me not with just the benefits of baby massage, it gave me a bit of sanity too knowing I wasn't the only mum feeling like:
My baby seems to never sleep, my baby always seems to cry just before I am about to eat, my family seem to be telling me whats best for my baby ( knowing they only meant well) , husbands gone back to work and feeling a little lonely and scared been on my own.
Through baby massage it gave me that one and one time with my baby me getting to know its cues , something I will go through in my classes, but basically you getting to know your babies cry. Even though I have had four children each baby has been different and every time I have had to get to know there cues.
The same goes for baby yoga and is probably not as talked about as baby massage but provides probably more benefits to your baby, here are just a few of the benefits:
Improves relaxation
Helps to relieve the effects of colic, constipation, and wind
Helps balance, co-ordination and motor skills
Stimulates the brain
Develops physical confidence and spatial awareness
Improves muscle development
Aids bonding, trust and social interaction
Baby yoga helps to release blockages of tension in the body . Tension can block the flow of energy and can cause the body to tighten and become painful. For example a colicky baby may have tension in the digestive system.
Baby yoga is a centuries old tradition that provides both mother and baby with significant and undisputed benefits that are widely endorsed in the medical practitioners across the world.
Here are just a few of the benefits of baby massage:
Strengthens bonding and attachment
Stimulates all the major systems
Helps encourage longer sleep
Helps relieve colic.
My Classes will provide bonding between mum / Dad / carer and also a lovely friendly environment to come and relax with lovely sensory lighting. everything is provided so all you need to bring is your baby and changing bag.
I work with the babies so please do not worry if your baby has decided to feed or sleep through the massage or yoga class I am always happy to go through the moves with you and your baby after the class.
